Israel Says Several Patriot Systems Sent to Ukraine, Not One
- On June 8, 2025, Israel’s Ambassador to Ukraine, Michael Brodsky, publicly acknowledged that multiple Patriot missile defense systems from the country’s decommissioned stockpile have been delivered to Ukraine.
- This transfer followed Israel's decision to retire its Patriot batteries in favor of newer systems amid ongoing geopolitical pressures and quiet support for Ukraine.
- The systems were adapted by Israel from U.S.-supplied Patriots and delivered via U.S. Air Force flights starting in January 2025, enhancing Ukraine's ability to counter Russian missile attacks.
- Brodsky highlighted that the Patriot missile systems currently in Ukraine were initially part of Israel's own arsenal, having been acquired from the United States and modified to suit Israel’s requirements. He stressed that claims denying Israel’s provision of military support are inaccurate.
- This confirmed transfer marks a significant shift in Israel's role, supporting Ukraine’s defense amid intensified Russian strikes, though the exact number of systems and their long-term impact remain uncertain.
